ENTP - Myers-Briggs

This has to be quick as I am on my lunch break grabbing something from home. I am an ENTP, a visionary. I want to create something, lead, direct people and help them succeed. This is what I have envisioned and this is what I'm good at. Help me, help you.

Pick and choose

I realized, even though you can win every battle, sometimes it's just best winning the major ones. The saying goes something like this, "You may have lost the battle but you won the war". Well, I'm not too sure how the quote really is but the meaning is there. I fractured my radial bone 2-3 weeks ago and it delayed my school work. I wasn't able to attend Stats, finish a major American Gov't seminar & quiz, and Accounting homework. I asked my accounting teacher via email, he didn't respond and he's a prick anyway. It was a minor grade reduction but the Gov't seminar was worth 20% of my grade thus I wrote a nice persuasive email which he was very courteous and let me make it up. Now the weekend has passed and I finished the majority of it but I am still lagging behind as there is another accounting homework due tomorrow and my Stats midterm Sunday. I'm still falling behind..

Over the weekend, I was showing my roommate Mercel, the webcam chat program called ChatRoullete. I rarely ever go there, almost never but we started having a great conversation with a girl named Kundyz from Kazakhstan. I only heard of Kazakhstan from the movie Borat and understood it was a satire and none of it was true but I realized that it was extremely far from the truth. Kazak people are more Asian than Euro-Slavic. We added each other on Facebook and have spoken to each other for about 2 hours for the past two days. She's quite attractive, educated, and has a good sense of fashion. I barely speak to any of the girls who are chasing me in that amount of time in a week ironically. I also met a Korean girl in Korea which I am hoping to learn Korean before my trip to... you guessed it, Korea.

I've been purchasing more and more products on Amazon. I probably spent about $400 in the last 2-3 days on about 8-9 products. I am addicted to Amazon Prime and I can afford it but is it necessary to have all the nice-ties that I do? Well, I do invest and save a lot so why not splurge a bit? I guess, I can always find reason to my decisions.

A girl named Katy I was talking to a few weeks back told Mercel's daughter that she misses me. How can you miss a person who you stood up numerous times? I generally don't give girls chances after the second flake but it's been said by my Ex's that I just don't give them a chance so I'm trying to be more lenient but it just seems that most girls do not have their act together. Another girl April has been flirting with me quite a bit. Seems like a nice gal, we'll see but I'm busy as it is. Spring break is coming up so maybe I'll take some time to get to know her better. The current girl I was talking to Lena, still messages me bi-daily. Like Katy, she doesn't have anything interesting to say to me thus I have to try to hold the conversation but at the moment, it's just too much effort for me. Then there is Melissa, she has a lot of the things I look for that the other girls don't have, education, smart, funny, nice frame, attractive and stylish but she doesn't seem to give me much attention because.. she is like me. Way too busy. Even though she is the best fit, I just find another reason not make an effort. Kundyz asked me why I am single and I told her that most girls just aren't up to my standards as Mercel blurted out that I am too picky. I feel like this area just doesn't produce enough girls who are A-type like me. I gotta move to the city.. It's past midnight, my thoughts are so un-organized but I need to rest.

Whoa, what are the odds?

I've been meaning to get back into blogging. At one point in my life, I wanted to express my emotions and the only person who was good at listening was my sister-in-law Jenny Choi. I wanted to get back into blogging which resulted in me looking back at the old social networks such as mySpace and coming across Xanga. While perusing through my old Xanga and being horrified at my topics, how I spoke (typed), and other immature things, I found a comment left behind a friend of mine whom I barely known. She was someone I knew very little about but I just remember we had a long conversation and we would have random conversations but I could not remember what we spoke about, anything about her or why I am so intrigued by her. Possibly the carefree attitude and the hilarious things she would post that were non-judgmental but then again, that was over 8 years ago.

Kids grow up, people change, personalities change but either way, I am mystified. The girl's name is Sharon Choi but the name is more common than a Korean with a kim-chi addiction. I can throw a rock in Los Angeles and hit about 7 Sharon Choi's. I haven't ever searched any person out. I kind of think to myself, is this creepy? How would she feel? I mean, I barely know the person but I don't know what is drawing me.

I met her at a church retreat over a decade ago. She was such a sweet and funny person, that's all I can remember. It was a cold winter and we sat next to each other next to a fire place and talked all night. I cannot figure how I can remember such certain details yet I cannot figure as to where I parked or where I was the other day if not for my set schedule. Anyway, we exchanged information and I lived in Columbia, she lived in Baltimore area. I later moved to Baltimore but never caught up with her. I forgot about her but I don't know why I would remember her so well 6+ years later. She sent me a message saying that if I ever came out to California, I should visit her but her phone number is no longer hers.

I looked up email addresses but to no avail, it lead me to myspace and xanga which is as useful as Paris Hilton on a coke binge. I actually did see that her location was Oceanside, CA which did help narrow things down and I realized her xanga bOrawr was partially her middle name, I'm assuming. I ran into an image that was linked to her twitter which then lead to some blog which I am on now. It's funny how things work, I went to blog and now I am searching for someone and the most recent information I found from her was a blog. She's a student at CSUSM, the school I am awaiting to hear back from in the fall. What are the odds, that two people from the same area, end up at the same area over and over. We possibly could of crossed paths millions of times in this life time but neither recognized nor remembered each other. She seems to be a techie that is focusing on teaching. She is so similar to me, it's freakishly scary.

They say, "..Sometimes you shouldn't meet your hero because the expectation is so high, it can only let you down". I am not inferring that she is anything of a hero to me but the idea of that quote. I met the chief operating officer of my main contractor that works for me and a customer and boy was it a scary sight. I am being to harsh and judgmental. I should get back to the important things but I will continue to search. It would be amazing to see the evolution of a person over the years. I skimmed over her blog and it's just analytical but that's what the purpose of the blog is for. I really should get going..
